WORSE THAN TEwKsBURY.

IN. nOmpSOn " proInincHt citi-
zen of Reno and thirty others have
preferred charges against DIR. Bish op,
Superintendent of the Insane asylnm.
Following are the charges:
1st.-Generally, that he is uned.
ucated and untitled by nature and ed
ucaiion for the position.
2nd.--That in the discharge of his
duties as Superintendent, he is cruel
aud inhuman 10 the patients under
his charge. oft fsoriing 10 punish
ment Of the most revolving and lu-
hnman character.
3rd.-Thai he is neglectful of hi:
duties as Superintendent.
4thL-That he has msappropriated
ard appropriated to his own use and
benefit labor, funds and supplies be
longing to the State.
5ih.--That he has conspired With
contractors and personal friends, to
the exclusion of fair competition. thus
compelling the State 10 pay exorbi
tant rates for supplies.
6lh.-That he has used his position
as Superintendent to prnmole his own
and the political interests Of his
friends to the neglect of his dniies
and To the impairment ol the service
A..
7lh.--Tnai in consequence Of his
ignorance and incapaciiy, he has mis-
managed the business affairs of tie
Asylum to the de.riment Of the in.
teresis Of the State AMI to the dis
comfort of the patients.
Sih.--That DR.. Bishop is cowardly,
aud that his cownrdce inierteres
with fhe discharge of his duties as
Superintendent, innsmnch as he has
stated that he would not visit wards
without n guard, and even his COW
ardice is observed and commented
upon by the patients, who thus do
not have that respect which should be
due and shown to the INCUMBENT
Of thai position. and aoe especially
ctarge as .fjito@s:
The above charges are followed by II
series of specifications which reciie
crueliies, the most alrocious. Some
years ago when DR.. Bishop was placed
in charge of the asylum under The
operation of political trade, consi
derable INDIGNATION was expresst d by
mnny who thought his predecessor
had received unfair treatment. The
horrors of The Tewkshury Nlms.house
were sill fresh in the public mind
and many references To The rewksbury
affair were made, these references bear.
ing however, upon the political ma.
nipulatlon of poor and insane. 1t was
not thought by even tie Doctors op.
ponents thai h. would intllcl cruellies
on those placed in his charge, bul the
use of the Insane Asylum as part OF
the machine OF politics was dlstaste
full TO the public, and people were re-
minded of the manner in which APP.
poiatmenls had been made 10 POSITIONS
in the Massachusetts almshouse.
Hence the dlsaereeahle comparisons.
Doctor Bishop denies the charges,
and says that he can show the falsily
of each and all OF them, at the invest
gallon which will begin TO morrow
IL is only fair to withhold opinion as
a. his guilt until the result OF this IN.
vestlgation is known, but the recital
of the specifications is tale OF crnlly
which would make Spanish lnqnis-
itor or an Apache envinus, and either
crimes have been committed, which
deserve the severest punishment, or
those who have made the charges are
guilty Of most outrageous Islander
and deserve liberal sentence IN
suit for Defamation of character.

His comany, however, is not with him.
Soon after reaching Atlanta, Whack
Bailey went to the Gate City guard armory
and, laying down a quarter, said to the
ianitor.
'Give me quater's worth OF drill"
"a quarters worth O. what?" asked the
ianitor in surprise.
Drill, drill, man. Give me quarters
worth OF drill. Show me how to right
shoulder shift carry arms. Agun. Under

The ianitor looked at the military enthu-
siast minute with wide open eyes, and
then asked:
''Who is you, anyhow"
"Who am /? Gracious man, don't you
know me? Why, thought everybody knew
me. Why I'm Whack Bailey, Captain
Whack Bailey, OF the army that's going to
clean up Mexico"

NOW, when give a command I'll go

Ali right; 60 ahead. Give me big quar-.
ter's worth.
The instructor gave the commands and
went through the drill. Captain Whack
followed suit. The instructor found him a
good pupil and kept going until prespira.
ton dropped off Captains Whack's face.
Then the captain got tired and stopped.
The instructor wanted to go on but the
pupil said:
mo; I'm tired; we will stop. believe
when teach my company all that / have
learned here that will be able to whip not
only Mexico, but the world"
"Say didn't you say you wanted quar-

If you want to find out the true
character of a man get him into a
game of porker. He is bound to show
his true colors there. 1t does not
make any difference whether he is a
winner or loser, he will show him.
self Just as he is before he gets through.
1t takes a cool head and lots OF nerve
to keep quiet in a game ofpoker, watch
the players and never be moved
by the jokes, growls and jeers of fell
low-players. There are some players
who never know when they are beins
whipped around the bush. These fell
lows are never satisfied with the text
of the game. If the ante is twenty
five cents they will invariably make
it seventy-five cents when it comes
their turn, so as to make jack pot.
But it is seldom that they win one Of
these big pots. Some quiet duck, who
had 10 hand in the job, will open the pot
with two pair or better, and then one
of the smart Alexis, with a small pair
and an ace, or a bob-tail flush will
raise the pot and attempt to steal
by a reckless bluff. But he always
gets a call, and in the end finds him.
self only the deeper in the hole. And
then he swears, calls the fellow who
beats him tight-bellied player. and
thinks he is playing in terrible hard
luck. A man who makes it a practice
of bluffing in a small limit game, or
who invariably comes in on q small
pair when a jackpot is opened, is
nothing short of a chump. Put that
in your pipe and smoke it, as it fits
good many of you. There are some
players you never can satisfy, no mat
ter how you play; so the only way is
to attend to your own business, keep
your mouth shut and your eyes open,
play your hand for all there is in 1t.
see that the cards are well shufied
and cut, and when you find chronic
GROWER or buffer in the game, study
his game and make him your meat.
